This past week the juvenile Tarpon has been eating more aggressive than the Big Tarpon. The month of August to Dec usually are raining month wish are good for Tarpon fishing.
Tarpon and snook action has been steady on high tides and at night during big moon days. We expect it to stay active until September. In the big game waters yellowfin tuna is a secure catch and blue marlin have been slow but they are giants (500 lbs +). As female blue marlin are already in our waters September and October promises a steady 3-5 fish per day fish ranging between 300-600 lbs.

Fernando took me fishing in the lagoons around San Juan and did an excellent job teaching, conversing, and putting me on huge tarpon. He's a great guide and speaks perfect English (and Spanish) for those from the States. His style of fishing is a bit more active for both him and the client, as he will pole the boat in shallow water to sight-fish for monster tarpon feeding in the shallows. We had a great trip - if I did a better job taking his instruction I could have landed three or four tarpon. As it was, this novice bass fisherman landed one beautiful tarpon, hooked another monster that got away, and missed hook-sets on two others. It was an exciting day!
We had a great time even though the waves were high. Only got one in the boat but Luis was amazing and very friendly. All in all great experience great time good times with good people.
Great day on the water. Captain Javier is very knowledgeable and capable. He's intimatelyfamiliar with the San Jose inshore areas. Next time we'rein PR we plan on going off shore with him.
Fished with Francisco and had an amazing time. He was exceptionally patient and easy to talk to. Not to mention that he know where the fish are! Amazing trip!
Excellent tour! Armando was friendly, professional, and made the trip enjoyable from start to finish. Great experience, beautiful views, and highly recommended. Thank you!
